I’m Number 1!

Sep 04 2007

At least when it comes to smartass remarks.

There’s a number of blogs that I read daily through my Google Reader. Some are friends’ blogs, some are news feeds, some are from fellow true Newfoundlanders ranting & roaring. Some I read just because they write about blogging and the interweb and they occasionally strike onto something that I find interesting or inspirational. I’ll list them all in a posting some day, but I’ll mention How To Change The World right now. The author, Guy Kawasaki has had quite a career including authoring books, working at Apple and running several companies as well as writing the blog How To Change The World.

To celebrate his 53rd birthday, Guy wrote a post called You Know You’re Old When: and he started his list, encouraging others to add to it. I offered my two cents. The next day, he posted an audio clip of him reading The Best Of “You Know You’re Old When:” and guess who’s comment was number one! That’s right, yours truly was the smartass of the day! Give it a listen and hear him chuckle at the end! He actually thought that maybe the comment came from Steve Wozniak or Steve Jobs!

Thanks, Guy! Keep up the good work!

It’s that time again. Time for the monthly acknowledgment of special events in our families.

Nan, Stevie and Shelly Sept 11, 1909. This was my Nanny Rose’s birthday. Nanny passed away in 1984, when I was 17. We miss you and we love you, Nan.
   
   
My Niece and Godchild, Melissa Sept 10. Happy Birthday Melissa! All our love to my one and only God child!

I don’t have a photo of Faythe and Harry! Can someone send me one? Sept 20. Faythe and Harry are the twins born to one of my other sis-in-laws, Maxine. Happy Birthday guys!
   
   
Mary, Connie and Jerry Double Whammy here. My sis-in-law Mary (on the left) is (mumble) years old on Sept 21. My other sis-in-law, Connie, celebrates her birthday on Sept 26. This year is the last year she will get one year closer to 40…Can you guess their ages?
